Lost Opportunities?
Long-oppressed Chicagoans chose not to choose. Daily Kos, Sun Mar 27, 2011 at 12:00 AM EDT
Rahm Emanuel will leap into the Mayorship in April without a runoff or a whimper.
Wait till the clashes come over budget slashes, selloffs to hedge funds/corporations and just wait till taxes rise.
Wait till the screaming temper tantrums start and watch the charming election face fade to rage.
Wait through the endless two-year election cycle to determine if President Obama is re-elected with the help of his frenzied friend and the glorious City of Chicago.
Wait for the bottom of America to fall out if the President isn't re-elected.
Silly Rabbit of Daily Kos nailed Obama's opposition in "Field of Dreams" (below).
Happily, the Tea Party will never allow a moderate extremist Conservative like Mitt 'Mormon' Romney to win the Republican Presidential nomination and newly hard-right John 'prisoner of war' McCain (furiously lonely or fuming on Meet the Press) is on nobody's list of candidates.
So maybe we can count on the Republican Party to save America from them - with their own candidate choices.
So, unless the voting majority of Americans have lost their minds, we agree that Obama's a pretty good bet for 2012.

Sunday Talk: Field of Dreams
by Silly Rabbit
With President Obama's approval rating hovering below the 50% mark, his reelection in 2010 is far from certain.
However, a quick look at the Republicans exploring the possibility of running against him should give us all reason to be optimistic.
Here they are, in alphabetical order:
Michele Bachmann: Fact-challenged kook.
Haley Barbour: Fat cat civil rights revisionist.
John Bolton: Mustachioed menace.
Herman Cain: African-American. Enough said.
Mitch Daniels: Cheese-eating surrender monkey.
Newt Gingrich: Unlikeable, amoral flip-flopper.
Mike Huckabee: Culture-warring colonialist.
John Huntsman: Obama's favourite Mormon.
Fred Karger: Openly gay. Enough said.
Sarah Palin™: Jew for Jesus.
Dr Ron Paul or Dr Rand Paul*: The gold standard of crazy.
Tim Pawlenty: Action movie zero.
Mitt Romney: Unnuanced pander bear.
Rick Santorum: Google him.
Donald Trump: Megalomaniacal birther.
All in all, I'd say that Oama's reelection is a pretty good bet.

Addendum: (offered to Silly Rabbit's unforgetable GOP prospect list)
New Jersey's governor: 'sexy-hot' tub of rancid lard.
Wisconsin's governor: ball-busted dipstick.
